Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of valve testing, and particularly relates to a pressure testing device for simulating the working conditions of a foot valve. Background Technique

[0002] As a switching valve for inlet and discharge at the bottom of a mobile pressure vessel, the foot valve has a relatively high usage frequency among all valve parts of pressure vessels. A high usage frequency means a higher risk of human operation and more complex working conditions. For example, when an operator fills the medium into the container before the discharge valve is opened, it is very easy to cause damage to the foot valve due to pressure. At present, most valve pressure tests are carried out on a valve pressure test bench, which fails to accurately simulate the complex working conditions and unexpected situations during the actual operation of the valve.

[0003] On the other hand, most bottom discharge valves are spread valves, and the tank connection end and the pipe connection end form an angle of 45° or 135°. Therefore, there are few test bench test fixtures available for the pressure test of spread valves.

[0004] Therefore, a new technical solution is needed to solve the above problems. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a pressure testing device for simulating the working conditions of a foot valve to solve the problem that the valve pressure test bench in the above background technique fails to simulate the actual working conditions of the spread discharge valve.

[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solution: A pressure testing device for simulating the working conditions of a foot valve, characterized by comprising: a pressure loading component, a foot valve to be tested, and a foot valve test fixture. The pressure loading component is detachably connected to the pipe connection end of the foot valve to be tested through a flange, and the foot valve test fixture is detachably connected to the tank connection end of the foot valve to be tested through a flange.

[0007] The pressure loading component includes a water storage tank, a check valve, a first water suction pipe, a vacuum water diversion tank, a second water suction pipe, a multistage pump, a frequency converter, and a water outlet pipe. The check valve is arranged at the lower end of the first water suction pipe and placed in the water storage tank. One end of the vacuum water diversion tank is connected to the first water suction pipe, and the other end is connected to the multistage pump through the second water suction pipe. The multistage pump is connected to the frequency converter, and the motor speed and output power of the multistage pump are controlled by the frequency converter. The water outlet pipe is connected to the multistage pump to apply pressure loading to the foot valve to be tested. A pressure gauge is arranged on the water outlet pipe in the pipeline.

[0008] The described foot valve testing tooling includes a testing barrel, a camera, and a welded flange. The testing barrel is horizontally fixed on the ground through a scaffolding support and has an opening at the bottom. The welded flange is welded at the opening at the bottom of the testing barrel for connecting the foot valve to be tested. The camera is placed inside the testing barrel, and the camera lens is aligned with the foot valve to be tested. The testing barrel is a pressure vessel.

[0009] The flange is a stepped flange, and its specific dimensions are determined by the nominal diameter, the diameter of the outlet pipe, and the dimensions of the welded flange of the foot valve to be tested. When the foot valve to be tested is connected to the pressure loading component and the testing tooling, an O-ring seal is used.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0011] On the one hand, the present utility model adjusts the frequency of the water pump motor through a frequency converter to change the water pressure in the outlet pipe to load the foot valve. On the other hand, the bottom discharge valve is fixedly connected to the pressure vessel testing barrel to simulate the actual working conditions of the foot valve.

[0012] The present utility model selects different stepped flanges for detachable connection according to the foot valves to be tested with different nominal diameters, making the testing device versatile.

[0013] All components of the present utility model are common machinery or tools in the valve working scenario, and are easy to install. All devices can be recycled for daily production and life, which is green economy. Description of the Drawings
